Back on January 2nd, in the premiere ep, the Shadow World is in upheaval as Valentine and The Circle continue to grow stronger by the minute, while our Shadowhunter team quickly becomes disillusioned with The Clave and their reaction to the recent events.

Now, loyalties will be tested, unlikely bonds will be made and relationships will be pushed to the limit as the Shadowhunters and their Downworlder friends make their way in a new world.

It was also announced at the 2016 New York Comic Con, that Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley will direct an episode for the new season. Watch the vid below!
